Great Family Movie. Will Ferrell has done a great job at playing a clumsy sportsman and you almost hate him at the end when he adds attitude to his clumsiness.
Its about this guy (Will Ferrell) who has a sports loving dad, but he can’t live up to his dad’s expectations as a good sportsman. The father remarries at the same time as his son and Co-Incidently (the only stupid part of the movie) they both have sons on the same day. As the kids are growing they play soccer for the Gladiator’s, coached by Will Ferrell’s dad, and the grandson is always benched for the obvious reason that he doesn’t play well.
Will Ferrell thinks that playing at that age should only be about fun. But his dad thinks otherwise and so he trades his grandson to the Tigers (ranked last) in the soccer league.
Ferrell doesn’t like this, cause it makes him relive his childhood, so he decides to coach the Tigers. So starts the rollercoaster ride of coaching the kids and how he undergoes changes in his attitude towards the game to want to win as opposed to play for fun.
Must watch…especially for my Italian friends, you’ll know why ;-) .
Do post comments as and when you guys watch it.
